Facebook and HTML5

"Sorry, Flash, but it looks like yet another Website is petitioning to join Apple's "iPad Ready" clique. On Tuesday, MacStories discovered that Facebook is converting its newest videos into HTML5 for easy iPad/iPhone viewing."
Well, not so fast. According to this story from TechCrunch, they are converting all new videos to h.264, not because they are supporting HTML5, which is the reason the videos play on the iPhone and iPad. They haven't committed to HTML5 yet, only saying they are "considering the move."
